About Us

At Goods For Good we source large quantities of basic everyday goods and deliver them to pre-identified communities in need around the world.

Goods For Good mobilises UK businesses and communities to donate unsold goods such as clothing, footwear, bedding, toiletries, and hygiene goods so that they can improve the lives of vulnerable individuals in desperate need. The goods sourced are needs-led and are distributed via charity and frontline organisations who support vulnerable people and communities including; older people, evacuees, refugees and asylum seekers, people who have been affected by modern slavery and human trafficking, people who are homeless or insecurely housed, those in assisted housing, affected by dementia or mental health issues, and families on low incomes or struggling financially.

How We Work


Source

We take donations of unsold essential goods from British industry, and pre-loved goods from communities and individuals. The goods sourced are needs-led and are distributed to vulnerable people all over the world. Get involved

Store

We have a small facility in Watford as well as a Humanitarian Aid Hub in Northampton which was set up with our corporate partner My 1st Years. The Dune Group, another of our corporate partners, store goods on our behalf before they are sent to vulnerable individuals and communities. We are in urgent need of a large warehouse. If you think you can help please get in touch. Get in touch

Distribute

We use a low-cost model whereby goods are sourced via industry and community groups and then distributed through our network of charity and frontline organisations. Some of our corporate partners, including, The Dune Group and SEKO logistics provide transportation for the UK and overseas. Read more
